Hey everyone, I had the sleeve 3 weeks ago and I have lost 30 pounds thus far. I am wondering, is there a stall between weeks 2 and 3? I weighed in last Wednesday and weigh the same today as I did then. I don't understand because I am getting my Protein and the majority of my liquids and hardly eat any food at all. I have started to walk and feel good doing so but am just not understanding why I am not losing faster. Anything you can suggest or tell me that will help is much appreciated.

Holy fish paste BatMan!!!! 30 pounds?!?!? You are doing fiiiine!!!! Just relax and enjoy the ride. Most of us stall at 3 weeks anyway. It's just something that happens, even to the strictest rule follower. No worries!

You will have stalls along the way. Try not to get to frustrated. Just walk, walk, walk. I also have been using, myfitnesspal.com to keep track of my food intake, along with Protein, calories, etc. if you use it, my username is Doreykn. Good luck.

I have not had any stalls that I know about now at 7 1/2 weeks. However where I weight at uses a scale that does a body analzer. And it showed that in one week I had lost 10 pounds in my fat mass and gained 7 in fat free mass. So hopefully you are losing fat and gain equal fat free mass. Take some measurements if you are worried and compare them even when you are stalling... one pound of fat will take up more room than one pound of muscle

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
